Airport transfers in Boom
Boom taxi: airport transfers in the Rupelstreek
Boom lies on the Rupel, in the heart of the Rupelstreek, between Antwerp and Brussels. That position is an advantage for airport transfers: Boom is closer to Zaventem than Antwerp itself. AKS Taxi picks you up at any address in Boom, from the centre to the residential areas. During large events such as Tomorrowland at De Schorre, Boom gets busy, and if you have a flight to catch then, it is best to allow a generous margin. Our rides run 24/7, so an early morning flight or a late landing is no problem. If the plan no longer fits, you can cancel free of charge up to 6 hours before the ride.
From Boom to Zaventem and Charleroi
To Brussels Airport it is about 35 kilometres, around 29 minutes without traffic. The route usually follows the A12 towards Brussels and then the Brussels ring (R0) to Zaventem. In the morning rush hour towards Brussels and in the evening rush hour back, traffic on the A12 and R0 regularly comes to a standstill, so we allow extra time then. Charleroi is also closer from Boom than from Antwerp: about 86 kilometres, around 63 minutes without traffic. To Schiphol it is about 178 kilometres.
Why not take the train from Boom?
Boom has a railway station, but from Boom you usually travel to the airport with a change. With suitcases, children or limited mobility, that means getting on and off, stairs and waiting on a platform. A taxi takes you in half an hour directly from your front door to the departure hall, without you having to adapt to a timetable. For an early flight, that is also a lot less stressful.
Who is it for?
Our customers from Boom are families of three to five people with plenty of luggage, older travellers who want to travel comfortably, and business travellers with an appointment abroad. With three or four people the Mercedes E-Class is enough. If you are a bigger party, the Mercedes Vito takes up to eight passengers with room for four large and four small suitcases. On the way back we follow your flight number, so the driver is ready when you land.
